CDSCO Registration Services

Indian Market Entry

Navigating CDSCO Medical Device Rules

Under the Indian Medical Devices Rules (MDR) regulated by the **Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO)**, all foreign medical device manufacturers must obtain an import license before selling their products in India.

To register successfully, foreign manufacturers require a registered local entity to serve as their **Indian Authorized Agent (IAA)**. The IAA acts as the primary liaison with the licensing authority, holds the legal registration certificates, and ensures post-market surveillance compliance.

Innoways Healthcare provides comprehensive, end-to-end regulatory consulting and IAA services, helping overseas medical technology brands enter the expanding Indian market quickly and in full legal compliance.

Indian Authorized Agent (IAA) Role

As your legal representative in India, we:

  • Maintain the official SUGAM portal registry for your devices
  • Hold official CDSCO Import Licenses (**Form MD-15**)
  • Handle adverse event reporting and recall management
  • Coordinate audits with State & Central drug controllers
